oo \ MONDAY, JANUARY 12, 1948 THE DAILY TI MES-GAZETTE PAGE SEVEN BEAUTY FOR YOU Dressing for the Merry Evening By HELEN JAMESON Perhaps you have hunted for a pew formal, got it, and gosh! how ou love it! You tramped through e shops, nearly gave up the sar- torial fight, but finally you won! There it is, a lovely, fluffy thing. Full, swaying skirt, all softness and grace. Ofi-the-shoulder effect, quaint as all get out. Youll put that other girl's eye out or know the reason why! You are well pleased with yourself, the world, even with the dress designers who kicked up such a rumpus last autumn. It would be a good idea, before slipping into that enchanting and becoming bundle' of dry goods, to take a survey of what might be called "the evening gown area' -- neck, shoulders, upper portion of the back and the arms. Will they be a credit to your new draperies? You may have to do a few beauty chores that, heretofore, have been neglected. But first take a look--see at your figure. Do collar bones form little shelves? Bad girl, you are not standing properly. Pull up your backbone and hoist the region of your Adam's apple, if you had one, and" the protruding eaves will disappear, ¥ you are on the plumpish side, you must be mindful of stance. It is much too easy to let the shoul ders fall forward, forming an ugly line, Take a backward look. A beautiful back is no small beauty asset; it is pulchritude wealth. It should be straight and flat. You see plenty of barebacks at parties these days, Not all of them quali- ty. The skin must, of course, be white, satin smooth and free of blemishes. The use of a long-han- dled brush during the bath will keep blackheads away--they some- times settle just south of the nape line--and will be an insurance against those horrid little red points known as goose flesh. An occasional friction with borated talcum is of cosmetic value. You'll A beautiful back is mo small beauty asset! * + have to call in Mom or 8is to do that for you. : . What about the color of your neck? If you have stopped your facial creaming abaft your chin, face and neck may have a color di- vorce. «The free use of a mild bleaching cream will correct that condition. Laving once or twice a week with a lotion made by come bining equal portions of strained lemon juice and peroxide will help a lot. Put it on with a pledget of cotton; let it dry. , There is the important matter of elbows. You never see them. The flesh may be rough, the skin grey. Get after them with toilet lanoline. British War Wives Pass Comment And Bring Down Coals of Fire By BETTY ROSAMUND Overseas Mail When dog bites man nobody bothers: But let the unusual hap- en; let man turn the tables and ite the dog, then newsgetters can be relied upon to come panting to the scene. So it was recently in the State of Oregon, U.S. A few British war brides from among the many thousands of their happily settled compatriots were tactless enough to declare that they did not like America. In a moment their gaucherie had made headlines in the local newspaper. Blood began to boil. Comparisons "Why don't those mistreated gals go home and crochet edgings on their pantaloons and live on tea?" was the contemptuous eom- ment of Mrs. Stanley Fink, of Eugene, How well we can appreciate the enraged feelings of the Oregon matrons. Don't we feel the same when the boot is on the other foot; when British war brides in America seem to disparage the land of their birth by too colourful comparisons with their new homes. A bunch of young mothers in Can- ada recently even went so far as to claim that whereas all nurses in Canadian maternity hospitals are pretty, those back in Britain are ugly and old, - f course, if all the loquacious ladies of the world could only count the precautionary 10 before making public statements there would be fewer fireworks of the Oregon variety, and better inter- national understanding. Homesickness Then perhaps disillusioned brides would realize the injustice of lay- ing at the doors of their generous adopted country the sorrows caused by unsatisfactory husbands, unma- terialized houses, and acute home- sickness. Then perhaps Mrs. Fink would think twice before writing, with- out a sound knowledge of eco- nomics and the crippling effects of ~var, in this strain: "If England had just half the backbone we have and would come out of their 14th century drawing rooms, dust themselves, and forget traditions long enough to modern- ize their country, they would have the same chance we have of having enaqugh 'without begging." Criticism Normally such an outburst would best dismissed with laughter, but when almost by the same mail tame a newscutting from South Africa criticizing our workmen, my British blood began to boil every bit as furiously as did the Amer- kcan blood of Mrs. Fink. In an otherwise sympathetic re- rilew of conditions in Britain a Durban business man declared: *The British workman has chang- pd. No longer does he take a Jride in his work and give of his t. His first concern now is his ny at the end of the week." is authority for such an in- lictment of thousands and thou- jands of workers was given as an A.

But old hands have been complaining of the younger generation since the time of Adam. In what other quarters did this traveller seek his information? Did he stand at the pit face when . coal miners, imed and sweating, tumbled exhausted off the mine lift? Did he then marvel] how they could labor in the dark- ness for a full day on such rations as 1 oz. of bacon a week? . Did he investigate the effects of industrial fatigue, and ascertain the necessity of frequent rest breaks between spells of particu- larly heavy manual work, or did he just see a band of road workers resting on their shovels, amd forthwith denounce them as slack- ers? And concerning the bomb dam- age repair work proceeding at "snail's pace" around Kensington and Campden Hill, London, did he inquire what hold-ups were being experienced through inability to get building materials ? _ Really, to understand these epic times, one needs' the impartial knowledge of the historian and the visionary eyes of a JFronhet.

BUNDESEN, M.D. VALUE OF STREPTOMYCIN STREPTOMYCIN, like the won- der drug penicillin, is an antibiotic; that is, it combats disease by at- tacking .the germs which cause if. Streptomycin is the moré valuable in that it works against germs which are not affected by penicillin. Penicillin, for instance, will nothing against the germs which cause tuberculosis, but streptomy- cin: sometimes has. an~almost mir- aculous way of routing them in certain types of cases. ; Recovery Occurred Streptomycin has estab- lished its value in the treatment of tularemia, a disorder which is often contracted from handling wild rab- bits. In' practically every case of tularemia treated with streptomy- cin, complete recovery has oecurred. Infections of the urinary tract, due to coli bacillus, haye also re- sponded satisfactorily to strepto- mycin, but nop all cases are cured 'oy it. Infections of the urinary tract, with germs knowns as P. am- moniae and A. aerogénes also are cured with streptomycin, The treat- ment . should be carried out in- to seven days. The influenza bacillus is also sensitive in the action to streptomy- cin. Influenzal meningitis has been treated with this preparation in combination with the sulfonamide drugs and serums, and many cures have been brought about. When streptomycin is given it diffuses or passes throughout the body tissues. The amount in the blood, reaches the highest level in about. two or three hours after the injection of streptomycin is.given into a muscle. It is expected rather quickly by the kidneys, About 60 per cent to 80 per cent is excreted | in the urine within 24 hours. Streptomycin also gets into the fluid in the spinal column and in the brain, but does not reach the brain tissue in significant amounts, Proved Its Value It is excreted in bile and, there- fore, may prove of value in certain infections in the gall-bladder and liver. Small amounts of it also are excreted in the breast milk. It has been found that when shreptomycin is taken by mouth, it gets rid of certain germs in the in- testinal tract. Thus, it may have a future use in the preparation of pa- tients for intestinal operation. Streptomycin may be given by what is known as nebulization, that is, in the form of 'a mist or vapor by blowing air through an atomizer having the streptomycin solution. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS T.O.: Without any apparent rea- son my lips often swell, Can you tell what causes this? Answer: It is probable that you have angio-neurotic edema. This condition is an acute disease of the skin characterized by ome or more swellings which come quickly and 'disappear almost as rapidly. Treat- ment consists in getting rid of the cause. Often, there is a food in the diet which is strange or unusual. Such simple ones as eggs or berries may be the offenders. The use of.a laxative during the attack helps to clear it up. When the condition is chronie, it is often very difficult to find the cause, A search should be made for Wardrobe Magic This problem, which can wreck | havor with clothes, is now solved. | Thanks go to bottle guards, which | Anne Addams DOUBLE your wardrobe!

But it is "an ill wind," as you very well know. It inspired some of our heavyweights to be mindful of health habits, and to do their ex- ercises, thus trimming down the equator so they could more com- fortably. pack themselves into the new models. It influenced women of normal | proportions to make an effort to re- tain the svelte shape, knowing full well that Time is not on their side and that the small, neat waist may expand with the birthdays. Tall and Small All women, fat and lean, tall and small, should keep their muscles in form by having a ten-minute work- out every day. Nature intended the feminine figure should have a neat waistline, like that of a young ath- lete. Look at your favorite movie stars. Always the near in-curve be- low the ribs. Don't think they don't work to keep it! They do. Figures and faces must stay young, else the FOLLETT New York success school as a good, job may be lost. To slimmer a large waist, to keep a small one small, try this exercise: Lie flat on your back in bed, hangs under the buttocks for support. Lift the legs slowly until you are fairly standing on the back of your neck, lower them slowly. It's good for your inner-sides also, as any doctor will tell you. Another Exercise Torso twisting is another good exercise recommended by a New York success school. The routine can be easily practiced at home, Sit on the floor with legs apart and reach for your left foot with your right hand. Alternate and repeat. The little shelf shaft the waist line is not always due to an accu- mulation of adipose tissue, put to relaxed muscles, They have got that way. because the mid-section has not had sufficient exercise. That old-timer, touching the floor with the hands without bending the knees, is an exercise that can't be beaten for cultivating good body contour, spots of infection throughout the body. The bowels and kidneys should be. kept active and the in- dividual should drink plenty - of water. Coffee, tea, and other stimu- lants should be avoided. Calcium drugs have been found valuable in treating angio-neurotic edema, and various -lotions have been used for the itching. Hashes LADIES, GET BUSY with creams, massage and neck exercises to keep or bring back a beautiful throatline. For it would seem that except for tailored frocks, come Spring, most dresses will go in for 'very low or shallow necklines, in some cases reaching to new depths, a ge be A HEADSTART for navy is indi- cated by its popularity with design- ers everywhere for late Winter and early Spring styles. Navy blue faille makes a smart date dress -- slim of bodice, tiny of waist and full of skirt. Saw-tooth edging in white pique for the deep square neckline. In among the flares ofthe full circular skirt are tiny white pique bows knotted to faille strands from the narrow belt, Sleeves are short; skirt is quite long. LIE / NOTHING -- BUT NOTHING -- can affect the popularity of the suit-dress, whether it be a budget model or an expensive job. Heavy pure silk black crepe is used for a handsome suit-dress, which has a printed design of dots in irregular shapes and sizes in white, red and green. Large patch pockets, slightly stiffened with hersc-hair, emphasize the hipline. The long slim skirt has a fly front. LAE TO ONE SIDE go many of the new hats. White felt is the medium used for a very slanted double pill- box, the low, right side marked by a cluster of white and old roses.

Strapless neckline is misted wits an upstanding black tulle fichu scarf caught with a diamond orna- ment, > bb FRANKLY PREITY hats are coming in, thank goodness, rather than the very smart, if. unbecoming, type.

Bowl Hello Homemakers! $ix years ago the New York Women's Adver- tising Club sponsored a survey, "What's Cockinz mn Your Neigh, bor's Pot." The purpose was to find out in detail the eating habits of the major nationality groups in the country, evaluate them nutri- tionally, discover~how they are af- fected by rationing and emergenc- ies, and suggest ways in which the American-born housewife and fore eign-origin housewife might profit from each other's knowledge. The results are amazing: Actual- ly food does not conform to aay political boundary. The earth is di- vided into great regiens in which all the inhabitants have certain similarities of focd habits. If cook- ing customs vary, at least the basic foods are similar. The different flavouf and consistency of thesz foods with strange names are for us the most interesting features. In normal time the Greek peo- ple eat light breakfasts (a piece of bread, some fruit or a bit of cheese, and coffee which is thick and sweet); afterncon dinners of bread, a casserole dish, olives, fruiis, nuts, cheese, a salad with ol've oil and vinegar, and wine; and supper of similar pattern. Most Greek main dishes bezin with onions cocked in oil, then the other ingredients are added. Bread is the most important single staple focd--so much so that many eat a mouthful of bread in between each bite. The foods that are eaten in Nor- way, Sweden and Denmark are ra- ther similar in character, alil:ough arying amounts of the same foods are eaaten in each "of the three countries. In Norway more fish is consumed--{fresh, dried or salied, while in Sweden, much sugar is used in cooking. Denmark is a dairying country and uses much cheese, cow's milk and butter. 'he liberal use of legumes and cheese akes up for the small amount of meat served in French and Italian dishzs. Soups aad rich sauces are made inexpensively with meat drippings, leftovers and pur- ees of any surplus fcods. Many French and Italian men are exc:l- lent cooks at home and proud of their skill, Latin people have a great deal of respect for food. They come by it with great toil and therefore make a ritual of many meals. Feast days and family- occasions are celebrated with certain dizhes--for example, an artichoke pie for Eastertime. The prinzipal problem in the I'ar East is thatthe average person has trouble in obtaining enough food to stay alive. Due to population den= sity and adverse growing conditions, there is a spectre of famine. We us- ed to believe that everyone in the East ate rice but have lzarnei Jate- ly that millions never touch it.
